Eyebeam Holiday Hackshop.
Winter has Triple Eyebeam Flavor!
Eyebeam welcomes all you blip-freaks from November 20 to December 2, as we fill the house with 40 international artists performing live chiptunes, nintendo compositions, archaic video game hacking, and low-bit art at Blip Festival 2007. And while you‘re in the hacking holiday spirit, let Eyebeam artists help you build your DIY gifts at our annual Holiday Hackshop. For all ages, all skill levels, ALL AFTERNOON!
Finally, true inspiration comes but once a year—and we have it online now from last weeks Eco-Vis Critique. Design your winning Eco-Visualizations for display in Eyebeam‘s Feedback exhibition on January 5, with the helpful commentaries, discursive arguments, and constructive critisisms by our guest panelists.
See you in your new snow globes ‘beamers ;-)
